According to the New York Times, The China Youth Association for Internet Development issued a report last year in which it claimed that 70 percent of all juvenile crimes were “induced by Internet addiction.”

This year, the paper goes on to report, China has banned all games related to Mafia or Kingpins and any other Mafioso-type figures. Gone are 'Godfather,' 'Gangster,' and 'Mafioso Hitman.' The country has also gone on to shut down over a thousand websites for 'vulgar content.'

Yet the article by Andrew Jacobs also says 'Industry experts say that at least 90 percent of all online games in China have some form of violence, whether they involve homicidal kung-fu masters, sword-wielding hobbits or monsters with a taste for human flesh. '
